Market Made Murder
Sims Lyrics

Market made murder
The market system has led to the destruction and harm of individuals and society.

Martyr my merge
Sacrificing oneself for the merging and consolidation of power within the market.

I sell a fantastic
Promoting and advertising products or ideas that are falsely portrayed as extraordinary or amazing.

Hell in hand baskets
The market system is leading us towards a disastrous and chaotic future.

Market commercial
Advertisements and promotions used by the market to manipulate and control consumer behavior.

Merc in a mask person
Individuals participating in the market wearing masks, hiding their true intentions and identity.

Television tearin' up
Television programming is exacerbating and worsening the negative effects of the market system.

Poor baby fresh
Even though we may appear innocent and naive, we are still being negatively impacted by the market.

War every time I turn on the television
Every time I watch TV, there is a constant bombardment of conflicts and violence.

Reborn then advertised then beat into submission
We are constantly being manipulated and controlled through a cycle of rebirth, advertisement, and oppression.

Still more billboards in the Minneapol so so
There are always more advertisements and messages bombarding us, even in the city of Minneapolis.

So we choke 'cuz they lower the blows
We feel suffocated and overwhelmed as the market keeps hitting us with more problems and difficulties.

And there's still nowhere to go
Despite all the challenges and obstacles, there seems to be no escape or solution available.

And we know by the burning in our throats
Deep within us, we feel the pain and frustration caused by the market system.

By our furniture and clothes
Even our material possessions are a constant reminder of the negative impact of the market system.

And by the burdens that we cope with
We are burdened by the challenges and difficulties brought upon us by the market system.

In a sermon that we know for certain is nonsense
We are aware that the messages and promises given to us are empty and meaningless.

Not God's steps held hostage
The market system has taken control and is preventing any progress or positive change.

I wake to daily bomb threats
Every day, I am faced with threats and dangers caused by the market system.

I don't consider that progress
These threats and dangers are not signs of improvement or advancement.

Evolution to revolution
From gradual change to a full-scale revolt against the market system.

We're losing head and fed illusions
We are becoming disillusioned and misled by false beliefs imposed by the market system.

So instead my fists are movin'
Rather than accepting the oppression, I am resisting and fighting back.

Bob and weave knockin' down monopolies
Using strategic moves and tactics to dismantle and disrupt monopolies within the market system.

Now how come I can not believe
Why am I unable to trust or have faith in the market system?

In...
Omitted for clarity.

Well I don't and I won't
I refuse to believe and accept the lies and manipulation of the market system.

So I throw the remote
In frustration, I retaliate against the control exerted by the market system by throwing the remote control.

At the hegemony box
I direct my anger and resistance towards the dominant and controlling forces within the market system.

While you drool and jerk off
While others mindlessly consume and indulge in the illusions created by the market system.

To celebrity spots
Obsessing over and idolizing the lives of celebrities promoted by the market system.

Who knew, it was you, that was the empty mascot?
Realizing that those who are celebrated and idolized are actually empty figures used to distract and deceive us by the market system.

Staple statics status
The market system relies on fixed and unchanging statistics to maintain its own power and influence.

They share magnets
The powerful entities within the market system are attracted to and collaborate with each other.

The bear tactics they practice
The manipulative and aggressive strategies employed by those in power within the market system.

Keep you passive and mild
They aim to keep us docile and obedient, preventing any form of resistance or rebellion.

Live life inside that clear plastic
We exist within a transparent and artificial reality created by the market system.

That home gas mask kit
We are forced to protect ourselves from the toxic effects of the market system by wearing gas masks.

That old half mast shit
Outdated and ineffective attempts to address the negative impact of the market system.

Arose a tack wit
Developed a sharp and clever response to the challenges posed by the market system.

That coat I've tracked with
I have diligently followed the path and consequences of the market system.

Close my casket
Accepting defeat and giving up in the face of the destructive nature of the market system.

Bury me in the worthless
In death, I will be surrounded by the emptiness and futility created by the market system.

Market made murder
The market system has caused harm and destruction to individuals and society.

While we burn on the surface
As we suffer and struggle on the surface, the market continues to thrive and profit.

It's the making of a man
The process of becoming a mature and responsible individual.

Mammoth mammal that manage ran it
A powerful and influential figure who controlled and manipulated the system.

Over mass metro
Exerting dominance and influence over the masses and urban areas.

Metro pop the culturist mass
The popular culture of the metropolitan area controlling and influencing the larger masses of people.

Anti-Christian crystal clear
Opposing the values and teachings of Christianity in a clear and obvious manner.

Alter alien active
A foreign and alternative force that is actively involved in shaping and controlling society.

Active vision the school
A proactive and visionary perspective on education and learning.

Episcopalian acts
Actions influenced by the beliefs and practices of the Episcopalian denomination.

It's as though religion is fact
Religion is treated as an unquestionable truth and reality.

In the safety insanely
In an absurd and illogical context of safety and security.

Forsaking my atrium tracks
Abandoning the path of personal growth and exploration.

But God damn doubt my man
Expressing frustration and anger towards self-doubt and uncertainty.

Made of flesh and organics
Being human, consisting of biological and organic matter.

360 degrees plus
Having a complete and comprehensive understanding or perspective.

5 points around the planet
Having influence and presence across different regions of the world.

Do the math
Calculate and analyze the situation logically and critically.

Measure the magnitude of my magnets
Assessing the strength and influence of my attracting forces.

The circumference of my substance
The extent and impact of my existence and contribution.

Steady soul it goes stag
My soul and essence remain resilient and independent.

So most nights post
During most nights, I find myself in a state of reflection and contemplation.

In a zombie I'm tossing
Feeling like a zombie, experiencing restlessness and inner turmoil.

While ghosts swell in my shell
My inner thoughts and emotions haunt and intensify within me.

And dwell for haunting
They persist and linger, causing distress and disturbance.

Nightmares turn reoccurring
Recurring and persistent nightmares plague my sleep and subconscious.

Dirty burning subconscious
The hidden and suppressed part of my mind is filled with negative and disturbing thoughts.

Flat line and capsize
Facing complete failure and sinking into chaos and disorder.

In a mental motion all cautious
Moving with caution and care within the complexities and challenges of my mind.

'Cuz that paranoia
Because of that constant fear and suspicion.

Preoccupies precaution
Fear and anxiety take up all my attention and focus on being careful.

I grew to far and the ball that tossed
I have expanded and grown beyond the simple game that was played.

Is exhausted because
It is now worn out and ineffective because.

Deep inside there are no monsters
At the core, there are no actual monsters or threats.

Or flyin' saucers
Nor are there any extraordinary or supernatural beings.

Carry martians to my concerts
Bringing imaginary and fantastical beings to my performances and shows.

There's only the loneliness of martyrs
All that remains is the isolating and painful experience of those who sacrifice for a cause.

Growin' a hole in my head
Feeling the constant burden and pressure weighing on my mind.

Escapin' the ceremonial carcass
Finding ways to break free from the traditional and limiting expectations placed upon me.

The market made a murder
The market system has caused harm and destruction.

But murder didn't make the market
The market was not created by harmful actions or violence.

Let your life shine
Allow your own unique existence and experiences to shine brightly.

If you can penetrate through the darkness
If you can overcome and understand the obscured and negative aspects of life.

The target is to keep on survivin'
The goal is to continue living and persevering despite the challenges and obstacles.

Inside of apartments
In the confined and limited spaces of our own lives and homes.

Commercialize my worth
To estimate and promote the value of my existence and contributions according to the market.

To fit me inside of their margins
To constrain and limit my identity and worth within the boundaries and expectations set by the market system.
